Succulent tangy strawberry with peppery basil seeds sweetened with maple syrup and citrusy lemon; Strawberry Basil Pudding.
Skedaddle with some moist creaminess oozing down your throat… And, glug.
This recipe will throttle any belief that vegan food can’t be super easy to rustle up.
Make this:
- When you’ve straddled a running stream. And, having gotten to the other side are ready for another adventure
- When you’ve just lost your mate in a breakup and need a quickie dessert to cheer up your sad sorry state
- When you’ve got a last-minute guest drop by. And, want a lush dessert that’ll get your guest to divulge all the juicy gossip
Strawberry Basil Pudding was inspired when wanting to create the Strawberry Girl look with food. Something quick and easy but equally added some colour.
This pudding is vegan, paleo and raw.
